No, all I am saying is that TDE is the *only* desktop environment where
things actually
1. Make sense
2. Work one would expect and no I am not referring to my self only.
These are standards on general desktop operating systems. One would
expect Copy and Paste to work, one would expect Drag&Drop to work and
that is why it is called desktop computing. Why would you need special
effects with flying windows if the DE doesn't meet the basics? Take
latest Linux Mint 12 for example. Why can't I drag icons to the panel?
Ok it doesn't meet my needs so I looked else where and I found it.
Everyone keeps reinventing the wheel without making any imporvements!
With XFCE 4.8, why can't I drag folders to the panel? Also many times I
click "Copy" to copy a file from Thunar, go to another location and
Paste is disabled....I can go on and on.....but I already said what I
like about TDE and I encourage Timothy to continue.
Cheers
